croteam hard at work.. SERIOUS SAM 3!!!!

the folks at croteam posted some photo's of their workplace recently on their twitter account.. one of them sees an animator hard at work on a "new game" croteam only makes serious sam so its naturally going to be that.. devolver and croteam plan on having screens soon. i look on expectantly.

serious sam has been the only nonsense alien fighter this side of texas in duke's absence and to not have him here would be such a shame for same return... they hope to have screens by jan. 2011 and the game ready by the start of 2012.. heave ho croatian developers.. heave ho

I keep hearing about this game since 2006. I'm not a fan of the franchise, but their engines were always pretty awesome.

I wonder what happened to their realistic military shooter.

Yay!

Now we just have to hope that it will be decent.

Imo, serious sam lost his magic touch, I mean guns, after the second one. Even the remake failed to capture my attentionFranko_3

the remakes werent THAT bad and as for the second i agree it stunk..

Apparently, it has most likely been canceled. Croteam was working with publisher Gamecock on the game, however, when SouthPeak purchased Gamecock, many of their projects were dropped.

I dunno, I loved Serious Sam First and Second Encounters while Serious Sam 2 was a disappointment. Steam had free weekend of one of the HD Serious Sam remakes and for me personally, it just didn't have the same magic or appeal as the originals in their time. I'm hoping Croteam elevates their game beyond old-school shooting with Serious Sam 3 with some unique/interesting elements -- along the lines of (or surpassing) glimpses of what we're seeing with DNF!

What is wrong with Serious Sam 2? The only things I didn't like was that most of the guns looked too weird, and the level design could be better at certain places. Overall, I liked the game a lot.

it was very childish compared to the first 2

the first two were satirical but not overdone... 2 just left a bad taste in my mouth.. dont even get me started on gold.

I wonder how will it turn out. These days people think games like SS is too hard with no action sequences etc. It is a very fun shooter, a terrifying game imo. In every room or open space you'll have to guess what sort of madness and horror awaits you.

Style, the pacing, underwhelming in general. Stuff like vehicles were added in terribly, and the action really didn't feel as frantic and tightly scripted as the others. The finale was just terrible as well, insulting even.skrat_01

I can understand your points on the style and the pacing. The style was a little too far off reality. The pacing had problems becuase the difficulty didn't scale up that well. I can also add that enemies didn't die in a satisfying way. They just blew into the same blood splatter every time.

I thought the vehicles were fine. I never had a problem controlling the vehicles, and I always found them effective choices. The controls were simple, but I don't think we play Serious Sam to play a vehicles sim.

The finale I enjoyed more than the first encounter's (never beat the second encounter). It was odd, for sure, but challenging and satsifying.

Now Second Encounterwas a different story: it was the best one (not the re-make)

the funny thing is that those games are terrible
